Course Overview

Course Overview

Course Overview

Learners will explore projects related to environmental sustainability. Environmental sustainability is important to ensure that future generations have the natural resources to live an equal, if not better, way of life as compared to current generations. It can be achieved by responsibly interacting with the planet to maintain the natural resources. When using the micro:bit, students will create projects such as smart recycling bins that can separate recyclables from non-recyclables. Alternatively, if MakeCode Arcade is chosen, they will build games to spread the message of sustainability. Finally, if using the Thunkable platform, they might build a smartphone app that connects bakeries with excess food to charities that experience food insecurity. The project they build provides an opportunity for them to deeply explore issues of environmentalism and sustainability. This programme may incorporate design thinking phases to guide students in tackling authentic problem statements and coming up with technology-enabled solutions.
